Its profile photo was not of a schoolteacher, but of a blogger based in Brazil, CNN Business found. Twitter suspended the account soon after CNN Business asked about it.The account, with the username @2020fight, was set up in December 2016 and appeared to be the tweets of a woman named Talia living in California.
